Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a physical quantity detection device configured to reduce an influence of a resonance phenomenon of sound pressure on flow rate characteristics. The physical quantity detection device according to the present invention includes: a housing arranged in the main passage; a sub-passage arranged in the housing; a flow rate detection unit arranged in the sub-passage; a circuit unit electrically connected to the flow rate detection unit; a circuit chamber arranged in the housing and accommodating the circuit unit; and a first introduction passage including one end open to the sub-passage and the other end open to the circuit chamber to communicate between the sub-passage and the circuit chamber. The flow rate detection unit includes a diaphragm including a diaphragm front surface exposed to the sub-passage and a diaphragm rear surface exposed to a closed chamber that communicates with the circuit chamber, and the circuit chamber includes at least one or more protrusions arranged opposite an opening to which the other end of the first introduction passage is open.
